About The Book
This Citizen’s Guide by Christopher C. Harmon presents an insightful and accessible examination of the public policy issues surrounding terrorism and counterterrorism in the U.S. following the death of Bin Laden. Aimed at both students and informed citizens, this book uses a "grand strategy" approach to discuss the ongoing challenges and complexities of combating terrorism.
Structured into four key sections, the book begins with an analysis of America's vulnerability to terrorist attacks, especially in the aftermath of events like the 9/11 attacks. Harmon then delves into the multifaceted response by the U.S., highlighting the roles played by government agencies, military personnel, and international allies in countering terrorism.
In the final sections, Harmon evaluates the prospects for future strategies, offering a balanced view with pros and cons for each recommendation. He also provides real-world examples of how individual citizens have contributed to national efforts against terrorism.
This concise guide is a critical resource for understanding the strategies employed by the U.S. in the fight against terrorism, offering a non-partisan perspective on complex issues while keeping the reader engaged with practical insights.
